Vintage Notes
A long, cool growing season with no major heat spikes allowed the Cabernet Sauvignon grapes to ripen slowly and evenly, achieving full phenolic maturity without excessive sugar accumulation. Generous winter rains replenished soils and supported healthy vine growth, producing an above-average yield of balanced, vibrant fruit. This ideal combination of weather and vine health resulted in Cabernets with remarkable purity, complexity, and classic structure, offering excellent aging potential.
Winemaking Notes
The Reserve was crafted from three individual estate blocks, all hand-picked and hand-sorted. Malolactic fermentation occurred in French oak barrels, and the wine was aged for 22 months—one-third in new oak and two-thirds in neutral. Final blending was completed two months prior to bottling to ensure harmony, balance, and a refined expression of the estate fruit.

Hidden away from the spotlight, Mariselle Vineyards 2025 Napa Valley Chardonnay is the kind of wine Napa insiders quietly enjoy for themselves. Estate-grown and produced in extremely limited quantities, this Chardonnay showcases the elegance and purity that have made Napa Valley one of the world's premier wine regions. Hand-harvested and gently aged for four months in French oak, it delivers vibrant fruit, refined texture, and remarkable balance. With only 9 cases (108 bottles) available through Napa Daily Deals, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy an exceptional Napa Chardonnay at an extraordinary price.
Tasting notes
Brilliant pale gold in the glass with shimmering highlights. Aromas of white peach, ripe pear, mandarin zest, and fragrant gardenia are complemented by subtle notes of toasted brioche and vanilla from French oak aging. The palate is bright, silky, and beautifully balanced, offering flavors of honeyed apple, lemon curd, and delicate baking spice. Crisp natural acidity carries through to a long, refreshing finish with impressive elegance and precision.
Winemaking Notes
The grapes were hand-harvested and whole-cluster pressed to preserve freshness and delicate aromatics. After gentle settling, the juice was fermented and aged for four months in French oak barrels, adding subtle texture and complexity while allowing the vibrant fruit character to remain the focus. Crafted with minimal intervention from vineyard to bottle, this Chardonnay reflects both careful winemaking and the purity of Napa Valley fruit.
